Docosahexaenoic acid lowers phosphatidate level in human activated lymphocytes despite phospholipase D activation
N–3 polyunsaturated fatty acids from marine oil have been shown to decrease T cell-mediated immune function both in animals and humans, and to inhibit the mitogen-induced lymphoproliferative response when added to lymphocyte culture medium. As phosphatidic acid (PA) is a key mediator of the mitogeni...
